Taylor Swift (2006) “Mary’s Song (Oh My, My, My)” Here are all the instances that the 11-time Grammy winner has written lyrics about midnight and middle-of-the-night moments from 2006 to 2022, including her Midnights album. For all of us who have tossed and turned and decided to keep the lanterns lit and go searching - hoping that just maybe, when the clock strikes twelve. The floors we pace and the demons we face. This is a collection of music written in the middle of the night, a journey through terrors and sweet dreams. “We twist in our self-made cages and pray that we aren’t - right this minute - about to make some fateful life-altering mistake. “We stare at walls and drink until they speak back,” Swift wrote. Swift also revealed that the album consists of 13 songs about “sleepless nights scattered” throughout her life.
“We lie awake in love and fear, in turmoil and in tears,” she said when announcing the album, due out Oct. Her new album - aptly titled Midnights - is expected to give Swifties more of these nighttime feelings.
Many of her songs feature dreamy imagery, whether it’s about middle-of-the-night escapades or her frequent mentions of 2 a.m. There seems to be an 12 year old girl in each and everyone of us lolThere’s no denying that Taylor Swift is a songwriter extraordinaire, known for drawing from personal experiences yet transforming them into relatable narratives for listeners. The only other part i could'nt be 100% sure of was the flowered hat, but what I said above, should be a more than logical explanation.Īnd finally, what I feel about this song, its really beatiful lyrically, with a great melody, no wonder it was (and still is) such a hit, but all I have to say is, seeing how this song is so likable, The song was indeed written by the guitarist Matt slocum, but he wrote it in the shoes of his wife according to him, this also adds to the fact, that slocum said that when he wrote songs, he tried to write songs whilst picturing how the lead vocalist (leigh) would sing it, therefore, writing in the shoes of a female. We'll take the trail marked on your father's map"Īnd so the reminescing continues.Why he has a flower hat, still beats me, but what i think is that the hat was so memorable, that is why the singer is asking for it again,it all about the memories to them.Īfter that, it was time to follow the trail "marked on her boy's, map of the country, which belonged to his dad. This is basically the emotions she wants to feel when she finally gets that long-awaited kiss, the feeling as if a band were playing, fireflies danced in the background, as well as the shimmering light of the moon glimmered on the two.Īgain, we'er back to the recollections, of doing what they used to do in the past Kiss me out of the bearded barley Nightly, beside the green, green grass Swing, swing, swing the spinning step You'll wear those shoes and I will wear that dress Oh, kiss me beneath the milky twilight Lead me out on the moonlit floor Lift you open hand Strike up the band, and make the fireflies dance silvermoon's sparkling So kiss me Kiss me. "And strike up the band and make the fireflies dance She wants him to take her by the hand (aka, lift up your open hand, as if motioning to dance) This is pretty obvious, a description of what the singer wants her other to do. "You wear those shoes and I will wear that dress"Īgain, wanting to relive the past, by donning stuff which were unique to them or made them recognizable at the time. They kissed so often, they lived in the country, hence the green green grassĭescribing the spinning step they used to play on, song is in the present now, they want to relive that old feeling of the swinging step
Okay, this song seems pretty obvious enough, but i'll break it down entirely, for you're benefit, woopeeįirst of all, i'd like to point out, as some of you had said previously, that this song is in fact a recollection of the past between the two lovers, as the song drifts to and fro, past to present.Ĭrop-field, they run through it as children, and the singer wants her/his other to kiss when their "out of the bearded barley" Released in March 2022, the tune’s lyrics include, You never know how good you have it / Until you’re starin’ at a picture of the only girl that matters, as well as, I know what we’re supposed.
